(Ed. Note- we interrupt our continuing coverage of the arrest of Gov Blagojevich for a special word from our Events folks.) We at Chicago Public Radio have been trying something new this year: at your request, we’ve arranged something special for you to do each month - come on out and explore Chicago, meet other Chicago Public Radio fans, try something new - and this month we have a really special treat: hubbard-photo-hsd080508_028_cropped_thumb-blogHubbard Street Dance Center is opening its Lou Conte Dance Studio this Sunday afternoon and offering introductory level classes in hip-hop, jazz, modern, tap, ballet and African dance. Choose two classes and join us! Afterward, cool off while internationally-renowned HSDC Associate Artistic Director, Glen Edgerton, shares some of his thoughts about contemporary dance today and answers all questions about everything dance. Are you an avid dance fan who has always wanted an excuse to learn more? Been watching “So You Think You Can Dance?”, “America’s Best Dance Crew”, “Step It Up and Dance”, and “Dancing With the Stars” (okay, maybe not all of them, but you get the point)…or do you get a really high score on “Dance Dance Revolution” - and know you’d be just as good on a real dance floor? Or are you just looking for something fun to do on Sunday afternoon? Come on out! We can’t wait to see you there!
